Italy Tours, Travel & Backpacker Adventure

Italy has long been a popular adventure hotspot with travelers, with Pompeii and Florence serving as necessary stops on the Grand Tours of the 18th Century. It’s still just as popular today with a blend of culture both ancient and modern. Sample the food and wine and explore the countryside whether walking or biking. There are also water sports and winter sports in abundance. Wonder at Monte Bianco, the tallest peak in Western Europe.

Swimming and sailing, water polo and diving, rowing and motorboat racing can be found at the seaside resorts. Play water basketball, or water ski in the brilliant yet caressing sun. For the most exciting Italian winter sports you will go to the Italian Alps. Cross-country skiing is a favorite in Northern Italy, and in Central Italy you can find popular resorts such as Abetone and Campo Imperatore. You'll also have the opportunity to try your hand at ice hockey, figure skating or bobsledding! Rock climbing in Italy is the perfect adventure activity, from the big walls to navigating the pinnacles, from scaling the towers to one pitch climbs. Adventures on a climbing holiday in Italy show off the area's naturally beautiful landscapes!
